The Vice President noted: “Today, the use of nuclear technology such as plasma is not limited to wound treatment; it is also used in the treatment of industrial wastewater and landfill leachate, detoxification of agricultural products and dried fruits, especially pistachios. We have implemented these projects across different parts of the country and are currently providing services.”

“The most important of these include stimulating the proliferation of fibroblast cells, increasing oxygen delivery to tissue, and regulating immune and inflammatory pathways in patients. All these factors make plasma an effective treatment for wounds that have not responded to conventional treatments for a long time, improving the lives of patients suffering from these conditions, she added.”
The plasma therapy units of the Yas Hospital Complex Clinic, the Yalda Clinic plasma therapy unit at Imam Khomeini Hospital, the plasma therapy unit at Ziaian Hospital Clinic in Tehran, and the plasma therapy unit of the Diabetes, Wound Prevention, and Treatment Clinic “Hafiz” in Sabzevar were officially inaugurated and put into operation Sunday, with the presence of the Vice President and Head of the Atomic Energy Organization, the President of Iran University of Medical Sciences, the CEO of Plasma Technology Development Company, and a group of prominent managers, professors, and doctors from across the country.
